Stereophonics - Local Boy In The Photograph lyrics

rate me

There's no mistake, I smell that smell,

It's that time of year again, I can taste the air

The clock's go back, railway track,

Something blocks the line again,

And the train runs late for the first time,

A pebble beach, we're underneath,

A pier just been painted red

Where I hear the news for the first time

And all the friends lay down their flowers,

Sat on the banks and drink for hours

Talk of the way they saw him last,

Local boy in the photograph today

He'll always be twenty three,

Yet the train runs on and on,

Past the place they found his clothing

Bah bah bah bah bah

Bah bah bah, bah bah

There's no mistake, I smell that smell,

It's that time of year again, I can taste the air

The clock's go back, railway track,

Something blocks the line again,

And the train runs late for the first time today,

And all the friends lay down their flowers,

Sit on the banks and drink for hours

Talk of the way they saw him last,

Local boy in the photograph, today

He's gone away
